i meant minotor!!
they get it from the same place as all the others! so it is all the same. right?
muddyjames:
at nearly £10 a litre I would go somwhere else too!!!
I never used to buy supermarket fuel either as I found I got less mpg but they seem to have improved over the years and stopped putting cleaning agents in etc. I didn't like buying 2/3rds fuel and 1/3rd cleaner. I want 100% fuel!!!!!!

Hi
I buy my fuel from Shell, BP, Esso etc.
All fuel is supplied from similiar/same place, but the Branded fuel have their own additives packages and the supermarkets use the cheapest sh.t they can buy. This has very little added if anything at all - now take into consideration that we have to use low sulphur fuel which means you are getting zero lubrication in the fuel, hence why so many fuel pumps pack up these days, also with no or less additive packages there are contamination risks, corrossion etc, etc.
I work in the lubricants/additives industry and if you tested the fuel you would be amazed by how diferent they are.
The supermarket and all other use additives/cleaners but it is a few percent, not 1/3rd or anything like it.
As I said I would not use supermarket or cheap fuel in my own vehicle - EVER.

i use sainsburys (nectar points) or Shell (100yrds from home) but try to (when i remember) use a fuel additive like millers or redex....
i tend to use sainsburys as its generally the cheapest around.
Magnum335:
Aye what about supermarket fuel with your own additive in?
